Most proposals for quantum neural networks have skipped over the implementation of the Qubit, superposition, entanglement and measurement in order to be used in MATLAB environment. Quantum computing uses unitary operators acting on discrete state vectors. Matlab is a well-known (classical) matrix computing environment, which makes it well suited for simulating quantum algorithms. The Quantum Computing Function (QCF) library extends Matlab by adding functions to represent and visualize common quantum operations. On the other hand a new mathematical model of computation called Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) is defined, building on Deutsch's model of quantum computational network. The Quantum Neural Network (QNN) model began in order to combine quantum computing with the striking properties of neural computing. In this paper the use and importance of those functions is illustrated with the help of few examples. This paper presents a brief overview of QCF that how it can be useful in Quantum Neural Network simulation.

<p>Noise and decoherence are two major obstacles to the implementation of large-scale quantum computing. Because of the no-cloning theorem, which says we cannot make an exact copy of an arbitrary quantum state, simple redundancy will not work in a quantum context, and unwanted interactions with the environment can destroy coherence and thus the quantum nature of the computation. Because of the parallel and distributed nature of classical neural networks, they have long been successfully used to deal with incomplete or damaged data. In this work, we show that our model of a quantum neural network (QNN) is similarly robust to noise, and that, in addition, it is robust to decoherence. Moreover, robustness to noise and decoherence is not only maintained but improved as the size of the system is increased. Noise and decoherence may even be of advantage in training, as it helps correct for overfitting. We demonstrate the robustness using entanglement as a means for pattern storage in a qubit array. Our results provide evidence that machine learning approaches can obviate otherwise recalcitrant problems in quantum computing. </p> <p> </p>

In this paper, a quantum neural network with multilayer activation function is proposed by using multilayer Sigmoid function superposition and learning algorithm to adjust quantum interval. On this basis, the quasiuniform stability of fractional quantum neural networks with mixed delays is studied. According to the order of two different cases, the conditions of quasi uniform stability of networks are given by using the techniques of linear matrix inequality analysis, and the sufficiency of the conditions is proved. Finally, the feasibility of the conclusion is verified by experiments.

Artificial neural networks, usually just called neural networks, computing systems indefinitely inspired by the biological neural networks and they are extensive in both research as well as industry. It is critical to design quantum Neural Networks for complete quantum learning tasks. In this project, we suggest a computational neural network model based on principles of quantum mechanics which form a quantum feed-forward neural network proficient in universal quantum computation. This structure takes input from one layer of qubits and drives that input onto another layer of qubits. This layer of qubits evaluates this information and drives on the output to the next layer. Eventually, the path leads to the final layer of qubits. The layers do not have to be of the same breadth, meaning they need not have the same number of qubits as the layer before and/or after it. This assembly is trained on which path to take identical to classical ANN. The intended project can be compiled by the subsequent points provided here: 1. The expert training of the quantum neural network utilizing the fidelity as a cost function, providing both conventional and efficient quantum implementations. 2. Use of methods that enable quick optimization with reduced memory requirements. 3. Benchmarking our proposal for the quantum task of learning an unknown unitary and find extraordinary generality and a remarkable sturdiness to noisy training data.

Recently, quantum neural networks have been explored as one of the candidates for improving the computational efficiency of neural networks. In this chapter, after giving a brief review of quantum computing, the authors introduce our qubit neural network, which is a multi-layered neural network composed of quantum bit neurons. In this description, it is indispensable to use the complex-valued representation, which is based on the concept of quantum bit (qubit). By means of the simulations in solving the parity check problems as a bench mark examination, we show that the computational power of the qubit neural network is superior to that of the conventional complex-valued and real-valued neural networks. Furthermore, the authors explore its applications such as image processing and pattern recognition. Thus they clarify that this model outperforms the conventional neural networks.

Speaker recognition is the technique to identify the identity of a person from statistical features obtained from speech signals. Many speaker recognition techniques have been designed and implemented so far to efficiently recognize the speaker. From the existing review, it is found that the existing speaker recognition techniques suffer from the over-fitting issues. Therefore, to overcome the over-fitting issue in this paper, we design, a novel ensemble-based quantum neural network. It selects one base model (i.e. expert) for each query, and concentrates on inductive bias reduction. A set of quantum neural networks are trained by considering different kinds of quantum features and are afterwards used to recognize the speaker. In the end, ensembling is used to combine these classification results. Extensive experiments have been carried out by considering the proposed technique and existing competitive machine learning-based speaker recognition techniques on speaker recognition data. It is observed that the proposed technique outperforms existing speaker recognition techniques in terms of accuracy and sensitivity by 1.371% and 1.291%, respectively.

Tremendous progress has been witnessed in artificial intelligence within the domain of neural network backed deep learning systems and its applications. As we approach the post Moore&rsquo;s Law era, the limit of semiconductor fabrication technology along with a rapid increase in data generation rates have lead to an impending growing challenge of tackling newer and more modern machine learning problems. In parallel, quantum computing has exhibited rapid development in recent years. Due to the potential of a quantum speedup, quantum based learning applications have become an area of significant interest, in hopes that we can leverage quantum systems to solve classical problems. In this work, we propose a quantum deep learning architecture; we demonstrate our quantum neural network architecture on tasks ranging from binary and multi-class classification to generative modelling. Powered by a modified quantum differentiation function along with a hybrid quantum-classic design, our architecture encodes the data with a reduced number of qubits and generates a quantum circuit, loading it onto a quantum platform where the model learns the optimal states iteratively. We conduct intensive experiments on both the local computing environment and IBM-Q quantum platform. The evaluation results demonstrate that our architecture is able to outperform Tensorflow-Quantum by up to 12.51% and 11.71% for a comparable classic deep neural network on the task of classification trained with the same network settings. Furthermore, our GAN architecture runs the discriminator and the generator purely on quantum hardware and utilizes the swap test on qubits to calculate the values of loss functions. In comparing our quantum GAN, we note our architecture is able to achieve similar performance with 98.5% reduction on the parameter set when compared to classical GANs. With the same number of parameters, additionally, QuGAN outperforms other quantum based GANs in the literature for up to 125.0% in terms of similarity between generated distributions and original data sets.
